Got a dead stick of a lemon tree sapling in an 18" tall pot. I thought the entire structure, roots and all were dead. Believe the few freezes here in S. Texas did the deed as it was outside.
I watered it anyway to see if anything would happen. Now I got lemon tree shoots near the main part, and one a few inches away. How should I pursue this regarding: How long to keep it in the pot before transplanting? Should I try to maintain the shoots near the main rootage, or the one further away, or both? My end intention is to transplant to the front yard for southern sun exposure blockage on the house The original tree was grown from seed, about
2 years old, and around 16" tall.
